You know, this game is somehow both extremely expected, but yet, even when it got finally revealed, I was just quite sad at what was happening in the end, and in a way, I think Esfric did get his wish, where he got to travel as a bird, out of there. The exploration was a ton of fun, and the setup was genuinely creepy, terrifying. 

The art style is nothing short of gorgeous, and the music being so soothing and calming, contrasted with the rather dark, almost grim. It's a dark mythic story in my opinion, although I'm quite happy that Leyna and the husband did get what they deserve in the end. 

I had a playthrough of this too, on my youtube channel: 

Ahhh this game is so beautiful in so many ways!

All of the art is stunning, I love the character art (and would love to know how you came up with the character designs!), the background and the walking characters too. The colours made me feel very cold and the tones were just right.

The written story was superb and kept my hooked throughout. I absolutely loved the writing of the characters. 

The crawling part was wonderfully designed, I loved how the text appeared.

What an excellently crafted  game. Amazing.  I can only sing its praises!

All the best,

Ocelot

Absolutely lovely in every way, with a beautiful story, graphics, and music! 💕

I wanna cry, this was beautiful!

The game's just outstanding, the added 2D exploration just adds a big layer of playability to it, heck, I didn't run in time when it said I had to! :(

The art is gorgeous, so is the music. And the programming, I mean, the constantly moving characters was such a great touch!

Loved the plot, the lore, and how it unfolded. Saw it coming, yet it didn't change a single bit of how I felt about it. Sad, but hopeful in the end :')

I very much approve of being able to pet sheep x3 They're adorable! Much like this entire game! I'm completely blown away by the visuals. They're absolutely gorgeous, and the atmosphere in general is very calming and quite cosy despite the frozen setting. 

I'm normally not the type to enjoy different gameplay elements in VNs, especially not exploring and stuff because I like to just be able to relax and read, but with this, I didn't mind it at all! In fact, I really enjoyed being able to move around and interact with stuff throughout since it was all so stunning :3

The story was a delight too! Sweet but with some beautiful darker moments <3

I have to admit, I'm a sucker for snowy environments in games in general, so just seeing the cover image and screenshots drew me in x3 

stunning storybook art, loyal to european art and story style
